Haemophilia B is an X-linked recessive bleeding disorder caused by mutations in the factor IX gene with an incidence of 1:25000-30000. Usually female carriers are clinically normal, and severe phenotypic expression of the disease in females is extremely rare. In this report we describe a girl with a clinically severe course of haemophilia B who had no signs of Turner syndrome or any other dysmorphic features. Cytogenetic and molecular studies in the patient and her parents showed a de novo translocation 46,X,t(X;15)(q27.1;p11.2) in the patient, indicating a possible break near the factor IX gene. The structurally normal X chromosome was late replicating and inactivated in all metaphases as shown by high-resolution R-banding. By fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with YAC and cosmid probes we could further characterize the breakpoint region on the X chromosome and the involvement of the factor IX gene.

D001777 Blood Coagulation The process of the interaction of BLOOD COAGULATION FACTORS that results in an insoluble FIBRIN clot. Blood Clotting,Coagulation, Blood,Blood Clottings,Clotting, Blood
D002836 Hemophilia B A deficiency of blood coagulation factor IX inherited as an X-linked disorder. (Also known as Christmas Disease, after the first patient studied in detail, not the holy day.) Historical and clinical features resemble those in classic hemophilia (HEMOPHILIA A), but patients present with fewer symptoms. Severity of bleeding is usually similar in members of a single family. Many patients are asymptomatic until the hemostatic system is stressed by surgery or trauma. Treatment is similar to that for hemophilia A.

D004303 Dosage Compensation, Genetic Genetic mechanisms that allow GENES to be expressed at a similar level irrespective of their GENE DOSAGE. This term is usually used in discussing genes that lie on the SEX CHROMOSOMES. Because the sex chromosomes are only partially homologous, there is a different copy number, i.e., dosage, of these genes in males vs. females. In DROSOPHILA, dosage compensation is accomplished by hypertranscription of genes located on the X CHROMOSOME. In mammals, dosage compensation of X chromosome genes is accomplished by random X CHROMOSOME INACTIVATION of one of the two X chromosomes in the female.

D005164 Factor IX Storage-stable blood coagulation factor acting in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. Its activated form, IXa, forms a complex with factor VIII and calcium on platelet factor 3 to activate factor X to Xa. Deficiency of factor IX results in HEMOPHILIA B (Christmas Disease).
